Arizona State vs Stanford Game Preview

Why Arizona State Will Win

Did Arizona State find something two weeks ago in the stunning win over Washington?

It’s been a rough year, but interim head coach Shaun Aguano hasn’t helped step up the passing game, the ground game was okay in the loss to USC and the win over the Huskies, and now the team has had two weeks to take a deep breath and make a big push to come up with something fun over the second half of the season.

The passing game pushed past 320 yards in each of the last two games – Trenton Bourquet stepped in against Washington and went off – but it’s going to take something special to pull this off.

Winning the turnover battle would do that.

Stanford came up with two takeaways in the win over Notre Dame, and the team is still the third-worst in the nation in turnover margin.

NFL Expert Picks, Week 7

Why Stanford Will Win

Maybe that’s what Stanford really is.

It started the season with a win over Colgate before losing four straight, but those losses came to USC at home, then to Washington and Oregon on the road, and then to Oregon State on a miraculous late play. A good team wins at least one of those, but those were forgivable.

And then came the terrific performance in the 16-14 win at Notre Dame, and now there’s real, live hope to somehow get to six wins.

It starts with keeping the chains moving against an Arizona State defense that’s miserable on third downs. That comes from not having any sort of a pass rush to count on – the Sun Devils are dead last in the nation in sacks and second-worst in tackles for loss.

Stanford QB Tanner McKee didn’t exactly pick Notre Dame apart, but he’s terrific if you give him time.

What’s Going To Happen

Arizona State will look like a different, more competitive team over the second half of the season, but Stanford is going to make some noise.

It has to go on the road to UCLA, Utah, and up the road to Cal over the next four games, but first it’ll come up with a strong day on the defensive front and the Cardinal skill parts will have time to operate.

It won’t be gorgeous, but it’ll be a second straight win.

Washington vs Arizona State Game Preview

Why Washington Will Win

The Huskies played well against UCLA, but it was too late when everything got rolling in the 40-32 loss.

The passing game hit 300 yards for the fifth straight game and it got interesting late, but the defense was exposed a bit against the first good offense – Michigan State included – it played this year.

Arizona State doesn’t have enough explosion to get the passing attack going like the Bruins did, and the running game hit a wall over the last two weeks.

There’s no pressure whatsoever coming from the Sun Devil defensive front, the offensive line is having a nightmare of a time in pass protection, and …

NFL Expert Picks, Week 5

Why Arizona State Will Win

Can Emory Jones and Xazavian Valladay get going again?

UCLA showed it’s possible to run on Washington, and now ASU has to give it a try.

Jones is a dangerous running quarterback who hasn’t been running, Valladay is a strong back who was great with Wyoming and hasn’t been able to get free.

For all the great things Washington is doing, the defense isn’t strong on third downs and the secondary doesn’t take the ball away enough – at least since the opener against Kent State.

The Sun Devils weren’t bad against USC, they hung around for a while, and …

– Schedules, Previews CollegeNFL

What’s Going To Happen

Can Washington travel? It looked and played well in the first four games in Seattle, but it got going too late in Los Angeles against the Bruins and now it has to be ready for the heat of the late afternoon game in Tempe.

It’ll be fine.

Arizona State has yet to beat an FBS team, and it’s not going to get it done here. Michael Penix Jr. and the Husky passing attack will be sharp right away – he’ll get all the time he needs to work – and there won’t be any of the drama of last week.

It’ll be a decent game in the first half, and then Washington will pull away.

USC vs Arizona State Game Preview

Why Arizona State Will Win

It’s not like everything was going to magically turn around once Herm Edwards was relieved of his duties, but interim head coach Shaun Aguano tried to get the passing game going in the 34-13 loss to Utah and he’s going to turn it all loose against the Trojans.

All things considered, the run defense held up fine against the Utes. The D gave up 465 yards in all, but it played better than it did in the camel-backbreaking straw of a loss to Eastern Michigan.

It’s the other side, though, that has to take over.

The Arizona State running game was stuffed by the Utes, but USC’s defensive front can be hammered on, and this is the game to give it a try.

QB Emory Jones hasn’t been able to get loose, but he can take off when needed to go along with RB Xazavian Valladay as a workhorse.

Run, keep running, and keep that monster of an offense off the field because …

NFL Expert Picks, Week 4

Why USC Will Win

Last week just won’t do.

After three weeks we all knew how the new look Trojans were going to roll. The defense was going to be questionable, but it would take the ball away in bunches to make up for it, and the offense was going to score when needed just because it could.

However, the O took its foot off the gas a tad too early on the road against Stanford and couldn’t get going in the wayyyyyyyy to close of a call against Oregon State.

But Caleb Williams and company came through to get out of Corvallis with a 17-14 win, and this week the fun should return against a non-existent Sun Devil run defense and without any semblance of a pass rush to bother the passing attack.

– Schedules, Previews CollegeNFL

What’s Going To Happen

It’s not like the rental ASU coaching staff isn’t going to try bringing the heat.

It won’t work.

The problem will be the inability to force the Trojans into screwing up. They have yet to turn the ball over, lead the nation with a whopping +14 turnover margin, and in this the takeaways will make an already dominant game even more impressive.

Utah vs Arizona State Game Preview

Why Utah Will Win

Anything interesting happening at Arizona State?

Yeah, the storyline is the firing of head coach Herm Edwards, but if the team doesn’t get trucked by Eastern Michigan the change isn’t made.

Basically, the team isn’t playing well enough.

The Sun Devils have been a disaster on third downs with the lack of a consistent passing game a big issue. The pass rush isn’t helping the cause, there aren’t enough big stops from the D, and here comes the brutish Utah offense that’s not going to do anything too crazy.

The Ute passing game is more than fine, but it’ll be the pounding running game that should take over. How did Eastern Michigan win last week? It powered away for over 300 rushing yards and two scores.

Firing Edwards isn’t going to change the run D right away. However …

CFN Expert Picks, Week 4

Why Arizona State Will Win

Can interim head coach Shaun Aguano make any sort of difference right away?

The Sun Devils have playmakers. Emory Jones is a solid all-around quarterback, Xazavian Valladay is a good back, and the defensive front has the ability and talent to be much, much better than it showed against Eastern Michigan.

For all of the issues over the first three games, the offensive line hasn’t been awful, the secondary is okay, and …

Week 4 Schedule, Predictions, Game Preview

What’s Going To Happen

Yeah, there’s a problem.

Utah isn’t going to get cute. Cameron Rising and the passing game might be playing well, but the offense is going to power away behind its terrific offensive line, it’ll control the clock, and it’ll grind its way to the win.

Arizona State will come out with a good effort, and it’ll give it a good push, but it won’t be able to hold up against the Ute lines.
